Extreme Arctic Warming Sees North Pole Temperatures Rise Above Freezing
A sharp rise in Arctic temperatures saw the North Pole exceed freezing, with readings 20 degree Celsius above normal. Scientists warn of accelerating ice loss and climate change impacts. The event, attributed to a weather system near Iceland, has raised concerns about Arctic amplification, which causes the region to warm nearly four times faster th...

Concerns Rise Over Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation Stability and Climate Impact
A new study suggests the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has remained stable over the past six decades, but experts remain divided. While some scientists argue the system has not weakened, others believe potential future disruptions to AMOC are inevitable, with major climate implications, including extreme weather events and cold...

Ocean Warming Rate Quadruples Over Four Decades, Accelerating Climate Change
New research highlights a troubling acceleration in ocean warming, with the rate of temperature rise quadrupling since the 1980s. According to a study in Environmental Research Letters, ocean surface temperatures now rise at 0.27°C per decade, up from 0.06°C. This rapid warming, driven by greenhouse gases like CO2 and methane, is worsening Earth'...

NOAA Confirms a Weak and 'Unusual' La Niña by Spring
An unusual La Niña event has been confirmed by NOAA, emerging later than expected in December 2024. This weaker and shorter cycle, part of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), is predicted to persist until April 2025. La Niña typically brings cooler and wetter winters to northern regions while causing warmer, drier conditions in the south. D...

2024 Marks Earth's Hottest Year Ever, Surpassing Critical 1.5 degree Celsius Warming Limit
In 2024, Earth recorded its hottest year ever, surpassing the critical 1.5 degree Celsius warming threshold for the first time in history. This significant temperature increase has been linked to intensified weather events, rising sea levels, and widespread environmental damage. The year saw an alarming rise in climate-related disasters, with the U...

Lake Mendota's Bacteria Are Stuck in an Evolutionary Loop, Finds Study
Research in Lake Mendota reveals seasonal bacterial evolution, with microbes adapting to environmental shifts over 20 years. Despite rapid changes, many species return to prior genetic states, highlighting cyclical evolution patterns. Extreme weather events, like those seen in 2012, led to lasting genetic adaptations, offering insights into how mic...

Bomb Cyclones Explained: What Are They and What Makes Them So Dangerous?
Bomb cyclones are low-pressure systems that intensify rapidly, often over oceans, bringing damaging winds, heavy rainfall and snowfall. They form when specific atmospheric conditions align, with a significant drop in pressure and the release of latent heat energy. Their occurrence is most common in cold months and poses risks to shipping. Experts a...

India’s Summer Maximum Temperature to See a Rise of 1.5 Degree Celsius by 2043, Claims New Climate Data
A new report highlights the growing climate crisis in India, predicting rising temperatures, increased extreme weather events, and food security threats. By 2057, maximum temperatures may rise by 1.5 degrees Celsius, with variations across regions. Changes in rainfall patterns could impact agriculture and rural livelihoods, particularly in the nort...
